As you courageously walk blindly
Into your next dark storm by faith
I promise you, dear child of mine
You will not be walking all alone
What may have been left unsaid
Betwixt you, myself, and heaven
Was never worth any mentioning
I will never become accustomed
To your daily physical absence
In moments for me that do matter
You’ll always be a promising breath
Of each new breaking dawn, I inhale
As I hope to remain your inspirational
And breathtaking … as your setting sun

Where flight became stalled
Because fear stood its ground
There- is where I- was reborn
Where I relearned my reality
As broken fragments of a self
Where I’ve seen the unveilings
Of time, truth, and Holy love
Where angels cried and wept
For my salvation and healing
And I- wept along with them
Where fire seared my mission
Forged into my soul as passion
A combatant for the wounded
Of humanities silenced…truths

The richness of each verse brings out a father’s love. I understand it well as I helped to raise three awesome daughters.
